In the first photo shows my start weight which was 196 lb (14 stone) which was back in winter 2011. The photo next to it shows some progress when I lost a stone by the winter in 2012, I the weighed at 182 pounds (13 stone). I lost weight slowly so I could figure what suits me instead of my usual crash diets. I wanted to do it slowly so I was able to stick to it easier and not to feel pressurized.

This photo was taken on the 1st May 2013, when out celebrating my 2 1/2 years anniversary with my boyfriend. Here I now weigh 168 pounds (12 stone 6). I almost got down to 12 stone but I had a wobbly! haha. Now I am working hard at this as at the start of the year I decided I want to get down to 12 stone by my birthday on 13th July!... After that I want to try to loose another stone before christmas. My goal is to weigh between 126 pounds (9 stone) - 140 pounds (10 stone). That would be my lightest ever!!

Its a still a massive work in progress. I have bad days and good days. I struggle to be motivated and I am not an exercise fan..but I will be willing to change this! Lets hope I get to my goals.. It will be a dream come true!!

    Hate to correc thte maths but 168 is 12 stone exact (not 12s 6)

    So you're doing really well, better than you think:laugh:

    I started at 13 stone and want to get to about 10 1/2, but at the moment more clothes are fitting me so I might not have the willpower to go all the way....
